Re: LA Times confirmations article

So Rage Against The Machine is going to come out and stand naked, Red Hot Chili Peppers is going to play naked, Bjork probably should be naked (because she isn't fat)... I will attend this festival naked.

These are the headliners, not necessarily the highlights. The highlights always turn out to be the non-headliners, I think. Actually, the biggest two highlights for me were on the Outdoor Stage - Arcade Fire and Basement Jaxx.

Seriously listen to the Girl Talk album if you haven't already. It is the aural equivalent of the daft punk show last year.

I'm crossing my fingers for this one!!! That "Night Ripper" album kills me!

one of my favorite simpsons quotes:

Smithers: Well, it's a policy that ensures a healthy mix of the rich and the ignorant, sir.

Organizers were mum this weekend and it was not clear which day Rage or the other acts were slotted to play; that announcement is expected in the next few days. Other acts expected in the eclectic lineup: Arcade Fire, Interpol, Willie Nelson, the Roots, Manu Chao, the Decemberists, Arctic Monkeys, Sonic Youth, Crowded House, Air, Tiësto and Kings of Leon. ...

Bonnaroo manages that every year.

SHOLD do the whole thing without ticketmaster, but inexplicably won't. LATimes already says tickets will go on sale via TM on Saturday, and ticketmaster already knows the new color scheme for the poster.
